What Customers Say About Cuisinart GTF Gold Tone Filter:

Have to be more careful when I empty the grounds. This one is a bit less sturdy. Otherwise does a good job of filtering the coffee. I'd had a previous Cuisinart filter that lasted for years. The bottom of it was slightly open with coffee grounds slipping through.

I believe you will like it. Try it. This filter not only improves the taste of the coffee. It also helps with less paper use.

That comfort alone makes this item worth the modest cost of six to seven dollars (the price as I write this review). A coffee that is not so finely ground would probably leave less residue than the Gold Tone Filter, but the end result is the same: this is a problem you do not have to worry about with paper filters.That said, the flavor is almost as good (at least for the first few cups) and just having a permanent filter around will save you the aggravation of discovering you are out of paper filters while you are getting ready for work. If you grind your own coffee less fine than commercial brands you can get rid of most of the problem of residue at the bottom, at which point the GTF becomes a very worth while purchase. The Cuisinart GTF Gold Tone Filter for the Cuisinart 12-cup Coffee Maker - Stainless Steel with 30 Paper Filters is a great way to save money over paper filters, but the fact is paper filters do a better job -- in fact, they do a a much better job. If you use the GTF with a standard grade of ground coffee, you can expect fine coffee particles throughout the bottom quarter of your pot.

It may not have been 100% exactly the same fit as my original one but it does the job baby.

It may be retired for emergency use only, when I run out of brown paper filters. Works well but messy to get the grounds out. Also some fine particles of coffee get through.
